"Can I bum a cigarette?"

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

I basically hand smokes out like candy when smoking in public, under the assumption there was an unwritten pact among smokers to share when asked. It's bad at shows because everyone turns into a mooch. I generally just buy a cheap pack beforehand to pass out so I can keep my American Spirits to myself. But note, I do share, and because of this I don't mind asking when necessary.

However, when I approach others, they usually just say no. Last time I tried, it was a frat dude and his orange-tanned girlfriend who denied me with cruel and reproachful laughter.

This is with strangers, mind, among friends it's no big deal to ask or share. It's weird having people walking in the opposite direction dash across the street to ask me for a cigarette, but I am happy to oblige becuase I know the lousiness of having none.

So why do most folx on campus deny me? I use the typical approach, I have social grace. Is this an unwritten rule or have I just been a sharing dupe?

Sorry if there's been a thread on this, my search function is kaputt.

Also, I ask people who are smoking. It's not like I ask everyone who passes by.

Addiction makes people ugly, both physically and in behaviour.

Thanks for noticing!

(FWIW, I'm well aware of (at least some of) my own ugly behavior, and am quite certain that some borderline addictive behaviors contribute to them.)

― Austin Still (Austin, Still), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 06:15 (twenty years ago)

just quit today

Well duh. Ask the emo single people. They aren't acting to impress all the time.

― StanM (StanM), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:10 (twenty years ago)

they aren't?

― tehresa (tehresa), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:14 (twenty years ago)

Damn. Yeah, you're right.

But those are still the people to ask. They'll be so impressed a girl actually noticed them, they won't be able to say no. That's what happened when I still smoked. Since I stopped, girls don't notice m- hey! That's why I've been so single the last couple of years! Woohoo! Thanks!

― StanM (StanM), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:23 (twenty years ago)

They just sound like jerks to me. I've always been generous when someone asks for one as well, or needs a light.

― ALLAH FROG (Mingus Dew), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:32 (twenty years ago)

say it like this " give me a cigarette or I will hit your face"

― Mr Jones (Mr Jones), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:45 (twenty years ago)

Offer to buy it off them. Most nice people will just hand it over. This always worked for me when I was trying to cadge smokes off people.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 07:55 (twenty years ago)

I never used to ask for cigarettes from strangers because I'd always assume that they'd think I was "that guy" who just asked for them all the time and never bought his own. Sad to say, most people who ask for cigarettes are people like that. Well, most people who ask in the street, anyway. Same as most people who say they need money for a bus fare home don't. Didn't stop me giving out loads, but mostly because I was scared to say no.

And then there's cute girls in bars who flutter their eylids and then ignore you once they've got their cigarette. WHORES, WHORES, THEY'RE ALL WHORES.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 08:09 (twenty years ago)

Try giving them a whole pack next time & see what happens?

― StanM (StanM), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 08:13 (twenty years ago)

I always got a small, mean sense of triumph when this type of cute girl would bat her eyelashes at my male companion and ask him for a cigarette, only for him to turn to me (clearly unimpressed not attractive female) and ask if he could give the nice ladies one of my smokes. I usually refused.

Some of my best friends in my clubbing days only smoked other people's cigs and even in my happiest moods it used to piss me off.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:24 (twenty years ago)

Oh dear, I was utterly guilty of this last Friday, although I did swap a cigarette for a lighter. And I do give them out myself to prop up karma. But you still like me N, Trish, right? Don't you?

― Anna (Anna), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:27 (twenty years ago)

It's like so much else in life, dude. Are you going to let other people's twattishness make you all bitter and twatty? Or are you gonna stride through the world like some magnanimous fag-distributing uebermensch?

― Abu Hamster (noodle vague), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:29 (twenty years ago)

Oh, an occasional cadge is okay, and swapping for a lighter is definitely excellent etiquette.

Anyway, I don't smoke anymore so it no longer affects me.

But in general I am one of those people who acts generously and then complains bitterly about it afterwards.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:32 (twenty years ago)

I get really sick of it outside work. Once in the time it toook me to smoke one single cigarette four different strangers asked me.

― Anna (Anna), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:42 (twenty years ago)

"Are you down with OPC?"

― Boris and the Johnsons (kate), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 10:45 (twenty years ago)

I don't really bum off strangers, unless I'm really drunk. But it's been quite hard for me not to bum from friends, since I've stopped smoking over three years ago, yet most of my close friends still smoke. So, sitting in a pub, watching everybody inhale that lovely smoke, often the sort of gut reaction established during my smoking days just kicks in, and I bum. So I guess I'm "that guy", but I really am trying not to be.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:11 (twenty years ago)

I just take their cigarettes, I don't even ask. If their pack is on the table I'll just help myself. I look into their eyes as if to say 'You know it is ok for me to do this. You want me to have one of your cigarettes. You have no problem with this. You are yielding the pack without anger, without regret'. It's quite sinister.

― ratty, Tuesday, 21 February 2006 11:19 (twenty years ago)

I hand out smokes all the time because I remember when I was that guy, totally broke and often bumming. Trying to restore the karmic smoker's balance. It helps that cigarettes are reasonably priced in Louisiana ($26.50 for a carton of Camels)--I probably wouldn't be so generous elsewhere.

― adam (adam), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 12:53 (twenty years ago)

Yes, bear in mind that in the UK, a pack now costs over £5 (almost $9).

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 12:59 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, the price thing totally factors in. In Virginia, they are uber-cheap, but NYC? Forget it. Those fuckers are EXPENSIVE.

That said, if I've got more than two, I'll give them away gladly - I was ALWAYS that guy, and I always try to bring the balance back, karmicly speaking.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 13:48 (twenty years ago)

ALSO YOU GET A MILLION CIGARETTES FOR FREE ALL THE TIME!

(but if we're speaking karmically, ive got a lot of giving to do)

― pssst - badass revolutionary art! (plsmith), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:06 (twenty years ago)

Karmic smoker's balance soooo does not exist; eventually I kept my pack out of sight and even started rolling my own cigarettes. I used to give smokes away all the time and even offered a light.

I do find however that the 'can I buy a smoke off you' with a quarter (or a loonie!) in hand works both ways, even though no one ever accepts the money after (I think you have to insist once, they deny once, make sure the money isn't wanted and once the confirmation is in, flash a 'aw shucks, thanks kind stranger' smile and voila... cute little dance).

I also never approach tables; I find seated people yield a very low rate.

― alex in montreal (alex in montreal), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:13 (twenty years ago)

since I've stopped smoking over three years ago, yet most of my close friends still smoke.

Tumoas, unless you're bumming smokes off your friends and eating them, then you haven't given up smoking.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:25 (twenty years ago)

I always thought it was weird that it's (fairly) socially acceptable to ask strangers for a cigarette. I can't think of anything else you'd ask for in that way - 'can I bum a jaffa cake? opal fruit? packet of frazzles? carton of orange juice?' No.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:28 (twenty years ago)

Chewing gum.

― Boris and the Johnsons (kate), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:29 (twenty years ago)

Hm, I wouldn't even ask a stranger for that. Acquaintance, sure.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:31 (twenty years ago)

Everyone should smoke rollies - they're cheaper and nicer and no one minds giving out a bit of tabacco.

― chap who would dare to be completely sober on the internet (chap), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:31 (twenty years ago)

I thought the thread ws: "can i burn a cigarette?"

― jeffrey (johnson), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:32 (twenty years ago)

well, Pete what can I say? I got it like that. And thus, others in need needn't worry about having.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:34 (twenty years ago)

thats why yr the best, dude.

― pssst - badass revolutionary art! (plsmith), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:38 (twenty years ago)

can I bum a jaffa cake?

Roffle, is this like the gay version of "Do I dare to eat a peach"?

― JimD (JimD), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:40 (twenty years ago)

I also like my spelling of Karmicly better. Although it is admittedly less correct than Pete's.

i hate my smart siblings.

― Big Loud Mountain Ape (Big Loud Mountain Ape), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:43 (twenty years ago)

people always ALMOST ask me for a cigarette, then they see I smoke menthols and go away. My suggestion is to take up smoking minty cigarettes because nobody likes them.

― POOP BITCH (Mandee), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:45 (twenty years ago)

Or crack.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:50 (twenty years ago)

Some people are very keen on crack.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:51 (twenty years ago)

yes but the number of 'social crack smokers' is somewhat low.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 14:53 (twenty years ago)

That is true. However, crack smokers have no problem asking you for some of your crack. They've no manners at all!

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:04 (twenty years ago)

They're like a crack team of bummers.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:27 (twenty years ago)

here, people ask for your 'short' instead of whole cigarettes.

― ai lien (kold_krush), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:30 (twenty years ago)

Tumoas, unless you're bumming smokes off your friends and eating them, then you haven't given up smoking.

Well, yeah, I should've said "I've give up regular smoking". I'm a when-drunk-in-a-pub smoker these days, but I'm trying to quit that too, it's just that it's damn hard.

Cigarettes are one of the most addicitive things there is. It'd be kinda hard to explain to some random stranger why you'd really need to get a jaffa cake from her. And don't forget the social acpect of it: I've met some great people while bumming for fags, and vice versa. Though I guess you could meet interesting people while bumming for jaffa cakes too.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:36 (twenty years ago)

here, people ask for your 'short' instead of whole cigarettes.

We did that in school. "Butts on you" was the phrase used. It was an innocent time in many ways. Also a broke time. God bless the shifty shopkeeper who would sell you loose fags.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:39 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, asking for "finals" is good if you don't want to ask for a whole cig. When I was younger it was also common to as for "firsts" or "in-betweens".

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:43 (twenty years ago)

it's like the worst part of the cigarette, but sure, here you go.

― ai lien (kold_krush), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:44 (twenty years ago)

Chips! random strangers sometimes ask me for chips, especially if they're drunk.

― Boris and the Johnsons (kate), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:45 (twenty years ago)

people sometimes ask me for spare change :(

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:47 (twenty years ago)

butts and bums, why is smoking so posterior-obsessed?

a for "can i buy one" this happened to my friend who i was with the other night. if someone asked me this i would have a million times less repsect for them than if they just staright out asked for one - the supposed "buyer" of the cigarette knows that theres no way your gonna take 20p or some shit off them, so its just a lame conscience/face saving get out technique, but so transparent its almost embarrassing

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:51 (twenty years ago)

Ambrose, I have been wilfully resisting making some variant on a "I don't know, how small is your dick?" joke rather successfully until now. YOU BROKE THE SEAL.

― Dan (Arf Arf) Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 15:55 (twenty years ago)

I never, ever bum off strangers. So I never feel particularly bad if I'm having a bad day to claim I haven't got any more and not pass any out. Keep in mind they cost $7+ a pack in NYC, it's unreasonable to expect people to just give up cigarettes to utter strangers in this day and age. Though, paradoxically, I'm with everyone who thinks it's totally lamer when a stranger offers to PAY for them. It's like, have some self respect, man.

― Allyzay Rofflesberger (allyzay), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:06 (twenty years ago)

Dude, here in Idaho, Pall Malls are $2, Camels/Marbs $3. It's not like they're handing out dollars.

I hardly ever ask, FWIW. And when the transaction is successful, I invariably end up with a Camel Light, which is karmic justice right there for you.

― Abbott (Abbott), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:08 (twenty years ago)

I don't usually bum off strangers, but I've certainly bummed off friends quite a bit, so I don't really care: if I have a pack, anyone can have one. Help yourself.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:10 (twenty years ago)

Whoa: THREE dollars? (I paid $6.50 for my last pack of Camels.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:10 (twenty years ago)

I always tell myself I stopped smoking for health reasons but I just realised that if I could buy decent (i.e. not black market fake crap off a guy in the pub) ciggies for £1.40/$2 a pack I'd be lighting up right now. I was paying that much 20 years ago when I started smoking!

― Onimomgiwantaciggie (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:12 (twenty years ago)

Haha Abbott I'm not saying you're necessarily in the wrong, I mean if your depiction of people actually laughing at you and pointing and weird cruel shit is true obviously there are bigger troubles afoot in Idaho than your inability to purchase cigs for yourself!! I'm just saying that I almost always refuse to bum them to just a random person coming up to me on the street and asking/offering to buy one. But I mean it's just as easy to say "this is my last one, actually" or "oh I bummed this off someone else!" than it is to sit there and laugh and be mean about it. That is a bit...weird.

― Allyzay Rofflesberger (allyzay), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:12 (twenty years ago)

Cigarettes are one of the most addicitive things there is. It'd be kinda hard to explain to some random stranger why you'd really need to get a jaffa cake from her.

Yeah but people don't give out fags on the basis that the bummer (ahem) is addicted, do they? It's just a sort of slightly awkward social expectation and a reluctance to say no. I COULD be addicted to jaffa cakes. I'd still get much weirder looks than if I needed a cigarette.

Come to think of it, I'm going to SMASH this unfair system whereby smokers get free fags and I don't get free jaffa cakes. Weird looks be damned.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 16:28 (twenty years ago)

I'll give you a jaffa cake Archel.

― JimD (JimD), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 17:10 (twenty years ago)

Thank you. Got a light?

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 17:11 (twenty years ago)

Like it or not, smokers have this special set of social conventions, which I guess makes them closer to each other than, say, jaffa cake eaters (the sheer fact that you can't smoke everywhere enhances this socialization, because you often have to hang out in the same spot). Also, smokers know how deep a craving for a cigarette can be for the other person. So, because of that, I guess, smokers feel more secure bumming cigs from a fellow smoker, who shares something more with her than a fellow jaffa cake eater.

Duders, even cheap smokes are $10.50 for a pack of 25 here. My pack of Peter Jackson 30s is just under $12. Aus $ is not that bad now either so its not like thats $2 US or something silly ;)

Ive never bummed off a stranger. I've nicked friends smokes when drunkass at a club, but I hate being That Guy when I do it.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 00:17 (twenty years ago)

and The whole asking-to-buy-one first approach is fucking annoying. It reeks of ulterior motives.

― shookout (shookout), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 00:20 (twenty years ago)

This is a favorite pet peeve. I never bum off strangers. Never. I don't give cigarettes to strangers unless they are homeless and I'm in a generous mood. One exception is cute girls when I'm really drunk. I can't help it. Now that I have a girlfriend, I have no such weakness.

I can't stand when people come up to me with a quarter and an expecting look. Do I look like a fucking cigarette dispenser? The sooner these cigarettes run out, the sooner I have to walk up to the one store in town that still sells cigs for $4 a pack.

I was at work smoking out in front one time, and I had this group of tan tourists come up to me and ask for a smoke. I flatly said "nope", and he was all shocked, and said, "I've... never had anybody say that to me before." I shrugged, and he walked away.

DIE! I don't care about smoker's etiquette. Fuck having comradery with smokers; I don't need smokes from any of you. I don't care if you like me or not! I have the foresight to know that I'm going to want to smoke more than three cigs if I'm drinking, so get this: I BUY CIGARETTES BEFORE I GO TO THE BAR! Imagine that! What a novel idea! I don't give a shit if Vice Magazine tells me I'm a dick for not wanting to pass out cigarettes, either!

― josh in sf (stfu kthx), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 00:52 (twenty years ago)

Tell it! I mean even if I take smokes to a bar and I run out (god I hate it when Im on a roll and smoke that much but thats another story), I will exit the club, go in search of a Sev, and buy another packet. I try and avoid cig machines if I can - who has $10 in coin change on them anyway?

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 01:04 (twenty years ago)

Also, as we can see above, bumming off strangers just gives righteous antismokers yet another excuse to be a rude cock about smoking.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 01:04 (twenty years ago)

I believe it was about $15 US for a carton of Dunhills in China at the airport shops. Think I'll be bringing some back this time.

― ALLAH FROG (Mingus Dew), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 01:51 (twenty years ago)

I don't understand this hatred of people offering to buy a cigarette off strangers! We don't do that because we have ulterior motives and want to passively-agressively make someone feel obliged to say: No, you can just have one. We do it because we don't want to be scroungers. We've accidentally run out of our supply but we're quite willing to make pay someone over the odds for something we want that they have. I've often been willing to pay strangers £1 per cigarette when I've found myself in this situation. I'm happy enough with that when I'm desperate for some smokes, even though I'm the one paying way over the odds.

― slb, Wednesday, 22 February 2006 02:16 (twenty years ago)

"cheap" in my neck of the woods (NYC metro area) is $5.75 a pack. that's for marlboro 72's, purchased in NJ. cheapest i've seen smokes in NYC since bloomberg popped up is $6.75 (w/ tax).

for a VERY brief moment, packs of smokes were going for $3/pack in pennsylvania -- which made the NYC-to-philly commute thing i did somewhat bearable. but that lasted all of a month -- i guess someone in harrisburg noticed that folks in trenton and albany were clocking mad dollars on the sin taxes, looked at the PA budget deficit, smacked their lips in ecstasy, and smokes in philly were no longer a bargain. last i checked (more than a year ago), they were still $3/pack in delaware -- dunno if that's still true. and i'm not about to waste a day travelling b/w NYC and wilmington to find out.

so today i'm sitting in my friend's car waiting for him to come out of some administrative bldg, smoking a cigarette out the window and bumping some juelz santana. dude walks up to me and im thinking oh will i get a compliment on music? or "please move your car sir" but instead it's a mumbled "blhsgsvh cigarette" and a dollar waved at the car window. dude offers me US$1 for a cigarette, says he's trying to quit and doesn't want to buy a full pack. well as i currently am going through the shittiness of quitting i can tell you that spending $1/cigarette is certainly not going to make it any less painful. so i just gave him one (which meant one less that i smoked! everybody wins!)
